Roberto Morales Ojeda, member of the Political Bureau and Secretary of Organization of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba, highlighted this Tuesday on his Facebook profile the clarity of the statement made by Volker T\u00fcrk, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, regarding the harmful effects of the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States against Cuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morales Ojeda emphasized: \u201cOnce again, the voice of reason rises from the United Nations to denounce the criminal blockade of the United States against Cuba,\u201d referring to T\u00fcrk\u2019s remarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The High Commissioner called for the immediate lifting of sanctions and warned that their tightening, including fuel restrictions and extraterritorial measures implemented in 2026, is putting lives at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morales Ojeda cited T\u00fcrk\u2019s assessment of the deteriorating health indicators, the critical shortage of medicines and hospitals on the verge of collapse, as well as the impact on programs providing care to vulnerable patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cuban leader emphasized that energy restrictions have exacerbated blackouts and severely impacted food production, transportation, and economic activity, confirming the incompatibility of these measures with basic human rights principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFaced with this scenario of profound social and economic deterioration, the High Commissioner described the measures as incompatible with basic human rights principles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morales Ojeda echoed the High Commissioner\u2019s conclusion: \u201cThese sanctions must be lifted immediately,\u201d and reiterated that the position expressed by the United Nations is clear: No to blockades; Yes to humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
